According to a BBC news report in November 2006 the world’s most dangerous road is a 50 mile stretch of winding, mountain hugging cliff that is just three miles above sea level running from La Paz, Bolivia, to the Country’s Yungas region.

The road is only 10 feet wide and has no side rails.

Travelers frequently go through confrontations with wide-load vehicles when they are traveling in opposite directions.

Terrible Andes Mountain storms often wash parts of the road away. At least 200 people die each year on this long stretch of roadway.

Bolivians frequently pray to the goddess Pachamama for safe passage.

That doesn’t sound like a road that I’d want to travel on.
